Holy Cow Mark,
Glad to hear you're OK. That area was devastated beyond belief. Hope you get your hot water and power back
Thanks Robert. It's not too bad. I'm very fortunate. Some lost everything they had and I think the death toll has topped 200 in Alabama alone.

It was the first time that I've tried the D. R. Harris Arlington shaving soap. The scent is marvellous, reminds me of orange blossoms. I love it! The soap produces an incredible quantity of lather, and a very good quality one - almost as good as the Valobra stick. A true winner! :thumbup1:

Pre shave: shower
Strop: Rolfcowhide
razor: Unknown razor
Brush:Omega boar
soap: Mama bear_Givency Gentleman Pour homme
AS: Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male
Result:Shaving with a disability, while I was shaving my daughter would come in the bathroom. She has to rush her ​​work (Amsterdam Arena and today there is football, Ajax-Twente), but must first shower. rush, rush

So go on a fogged mirror, end result is still a BBS face and head. .

Rolls razor WTG / Switched to Schick type O with Gillette Twin for most of the shave.
Omega Boar
Colgate Cup Soap (vintage)

There were hints of success in this second try with a Rolls. I don't think the blade is 100% ready, and it was too hard to keep the correct angle to risk anything more than one WTG pass. Most of the work was done by the Schick. Still, I think now that this probably can work.

This vintage Colgate is really good stuff.

Lovely photo!:thumbup1: And the Harris Arlington is my absolute favourite English soap. Gorgeous scent and wonderful tallow lather. A winner in my book any day!:001_smile:thumbup1:
